Designing a Monitoring Program Ed Krumpe CSS 496 “When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe” J. Muir

2 Reminder—Why Monitor? to detect differences in a resource value across an area at a given moment (i.e., status) to detect changes in values over time at a given location (i.e., trend) to provide information to assess whether mandated environmental standards are being met to provide an early warning system of ecological change, before unacceptable environmental losses occur to determine whether management action are having the desired effects

3 Designing a Monitoring Program: Keys to Monitoring Clearly defined goals & objectives Address long-term & short-term concerns Specific statements about how data will be used Explicit, multi-stage sampling plan Clearly defined responsibilities (partnerships)

4 Two Basic Approaches Monitor areas where human use tends to concentrate Intent is early detection Focus management or treatment efforts Randomly sample across the entire area Intent is to characterize overall area conditions Determine extent of human impacts Detect more widespread, subtle changes

5 First Steps First step: INVENTORY Air photos & maps Trail system & camp areas Fire history & role History of disturbance (mining, grazing, livestock) Visitor use history Limnology studies Wildlife inventories, distribution, abundance …

6 Choosing a sampling design Sampling frequency highest where: Conditions already close to standards Rate of change is highest Quality of data base is poorest Management effectiveness is questionable Unanticipated change has occurred (adjacent land uses)

7 Random or Purposive Sampling Why a random sample? Strata, block, cluster sampling Sample size Why a purposive or non-random sample? Concentrate efforts where there are problems Efficiency & special problems

8 Monitoring Protocols Specific instructions for every indicator Statement of Purpose Equipment needed/training needed Sampling Method & measurements Treatment & control site? Fixed site? Sampling schedule Data Forms & Data Management Standards & Management Actions
